Air strikes target Libyan rebels near Ras Lanuf
A second air strike targeted Libyan rebels just east of the strategic oil town Ras Lanuf on Monday and was met with a barrage of machine-gun fire, an AFP reporter said.
The reporter on the eastern outskirts of Ras Lanuf heard a fighter jet screech low through the sky and saw a huge plume of smoke about 400 meters from the rebels' checkpoint and about 50 meters from the main desert road. (AFP)
